Which version of the Original Cartoon theme was better? (not counting Red Sky).

[FredWolfLeonardo]

The Original Cartoon as we all know has an extremely iconic and catchy theme, which is frequently bought up when people talk about the best 80s and 90s cartoon theme songs. However, while the song itself was the same for the first 7 seasons, it has two different animated versions.

The first version ran from Season 1 until the 13th of Season 4, as well as the European Vacation sideseason:



The second version ran from Season 4, episode 14 until the end of Season 7:



So which one do you think is better? I actually prefer the second one for having turtle designs just like the actual show itself, while the first theme song's turtles look a tad more detailed and anime-esque than what we have in the show.

Additionally, the second version has two cool ways of the turtles logo transitioning, first from the moon in the beginning and then from the pizza the end, while the first version does not have any transition whatsoever. I also think it's really cool how the second version has the turtles speak "their" lines such as "We're really hip", and "That's a fact, Jack!"
